What, do you think, makes a good member of a private tracker different from a bad...

Let me speed this topic up, since it's not getting there fast enough. Torrentday. Torrentday. Torrentday. Now let's wait around for that tool to come around and explain how he's the embodiment of a perfect member, and cheaters are evil.

You forgot the part about being 150% sure I got banned on every tracker I'm a member of. You must also use my name about fifty times in the same paragraph, so as to cause a seizure on most readers. But well, it's a good attempt.

No one "deserves a place" anywhere as far as torrent trackers are concerned. Access to them is a privilege, not a right.

looks like you've finally been brainwashed by all the trackers you belong to. although access to trackers may not be an absolute right, it's far from being a privilege.

i'd even say that new trackers should consider themselves lucky to still get loads of members given that nowadays, supply exceeds demand.

If you look at your trackers' rules, you'll notice they allow their staff to disable you for any reason, or even no reason at all, if they want to. Meaning, that as I see it, access to them is a privilege at its core. Hence what I said.

you deserve to be reported for flamming the thread.

Trying to pretend that cheaters are just some altruistic people with slow connections that can't make ends meet is laughable at best. They're a bunch of lazy assholes who merely want to grab as much as possible without having to seed or give anything back to the sites in question. You can ramble on about bandwidth caps and slow upload pipes all day long, but I know plenty of people who make due with what they have and I respect them for it. I don't have an ounce of respect for anyone who's thwarting the entire principle behind torrenting, which is that everyone in the swarm should be sharing back to increase swarm speed and longevity of the files.

Oh and re: Right, not a privilege, it's clearly a privilege. I don't see it ingrained in any charter of rights that I have the right to be a member of X tracker. And your membership can be arbitrarily revoked at any point. I'm not sure how that equates to anything else.

well, if you talk about privilege, it implies that they actually do people a favor by letting them join their tracker.

Well, at the end of the day, you just want to get some files that you need for your personal need, from the trackers.. Be a good member or bad member, doesn't matter. Generally, the traders & cheats are treated as bad members which I do not support.

Traders come due to the *invite system* and they don't do anything worng. Everyone have some amount of e-penis and they have something more. Hype of tracker= more trading.. See in the trade section. More than 90% of people would trade: hdbits,ftn,fsc or extigo. Why? because of their shitty invite system.

Cheats are nothing but people with low speed or don't have the money to buy seedbox for their use and those who wanna have large e-penis. The *ratio-system* is the main reason for these persons. Go to ratioless trackers and you will not see any cheats there.

So, the conclusion is: everyone is good member except they try to DDOS any tracker or try to hack into the db of any tracker.

That might fly if anyone really needed to be either a member of a certain tracker or belong to a certain userclass. Truth is that people who break tracker rules are of a certain mindset where their concerns simply outstrip those of all others . The fact that it is bt as opposed to "real life " has little if anything to do with it.
I think in some countries that's called being selfish.

Btw I'm not defending either ratio systems or user classes .I can't say that I know the inner workings of trackers but the first seems archaic in this age of vastly different upload speeds and the second is little more than elitism and therefore has to be largely counter-productive.

As for what makes a good user I think there are a lot different things ,many of which people rarely are given credit for . One of the reasons that I have a problem with underclasses actually .
There are probably members of certain trackers that don't post much or aren't blessed with blazing upload speed but would probably rather lose a pinky than see harm done to the site . That may not be an ultraleet userclass member but that a great member as I see it.
